I need to make a system disk for Windows 98, but I only have an operational XP system.

Goto to www.bootdisk.com and download an image for what you need there. Download it to your desktop and then run it. It will make a bootable diskette for you.

Just to make sure I understand what you are saying and do not end up with two non-operational systems. I can run the Windows 98 boot disk, which I already downloaded from the site your provided, on my current XP system and it will make the disk bootable. Then I take the disk to the other machine and boot on it.

The result will be a bootable diskette with the necessary CD-ROM drivers, and every thing you'll need to install Windows.
